The son of a train driver enrolled at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich in 1881 and began his studies with Syrius Eberle .
In 1889, the bronze bust of Emperor Wilhelm I , made according to his designs, was erected in his hometown , followed in 1895 by a memorial stone for Gustav Schwab . The relief is in copper driven . Both plants have been on the Friedrichshafen waterfront since 1912.
Another diamond work in his hometown was the Zeppelin fountain, carved from Lyon limestone, which was inaugurated in 1909. As a fountain figure he showed a boy standing on a globe with an airship in his arms. The fountain was removed from its location in front of the town hall in 1956, but its upper part was integrated into a smaller fountain on Friedrichshafen Kirchplatz from 1961 to 2000. In 2000 the fountain was reconstructed in its original form and placed on the bank.
In the church of St. Johannes Nepomuk in Bayerisch Eisenstein there is a high and a side altar by Bruno Diamant. The pulpit also comes from his hand.
